Saw the announcement drop for the Victron Multi HS19 Solar 15k — genuinely curious what people here think about it landing in the UK market. From what I can tell it's aimed squarely at that...

Had a similar head-scratcher with my setup a while back — both MPPTs showing perfectly on the CCGX screen but the VRM portal was only pulling data from one of them.

@EmmaPowell74 had this with my setup last February — panels were producing fine but the Fogstar just refused to take charge til gone 10am.

Been toying with the idea of running a basic slow charge (3.7kW) for my van from the cabin array when I'm parked up.

@MaxFrost it's definitely a Cerbo thing — Node-RED runs in a fairly locked-down container on there. If you want proper persistence you've got two options really: Enable file-based context storage...

Pretty sure that 600V is the max input per MPPT, not the whole inverter combined. Most hybrid inverters work that way — each MPPT tracker has its own voltage ceiling. Worth double-checking the EG4...

@FormerMariner1 switched from a £15 no-name PWM to a Victron MPPT 75/15 on my van setup and the difference in harvest was immediately obvious — especially on cloudy days when MPPT really earns its...

Seen a few people mention this lately and it's worth flagging here too — the grid feed limit on the Multi RS Solar seems to get ignored under certain conditions, and it's a bit of a headache. My...

Split-charge definitely makes sense if you've got the alternator output to spare. Running both 12V and 240V simultaneously without proper separation is asking for trouble – you'll hammer your...
